Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

terrible appointment
MD was more concerned with telling me how much weight I needed to lose (without knowing my current weight or the fact that I have lost 20+ pounds in the last 6 months), telling me that I needed to workout (without asking if I did work out or being concerned that I had to stop working out due to severe nerve pain in my leg) but to top it all off she yelled at her intern during my procedure and had him move the needle to a place that did not help my pain AT ALL telling him to move the needle north (which last I checked was not used in medical terminology). I lost revenue from my business, lost money for gas and still have to go back and get a MD who knows what they are doing to get some pain relief. TOTAL waste of time. I have never been disappointed with my past injections until this week.

Hands down the best doctor I have ever had. After being misdiagnosed 20 years ago with migraines and finally receiving the correct diagnosis of intracranial hypotension which is rare, I knew I had to do my research. I flew in from Illinois to see Dr. Leithe (I call her Dr. Gray) and she was phenomenal. Incredibly intelligent, with an unbelievable bed side manner. Really cared about getting me better. Referred me to top notch surgeons and kept up with my care. It’s been a blessing to know her.

She is literally saving my life. One of the few docs in the world that can seal resistant spinal csf leaks. She is world renown. It is a privilege to be able to have her as my doc. I am forever grateful. The rest of the team is awesome too!!

She is so kind and compassionate. she's willing to try unlike some doctors who say you're clinically depressed or it's all in your head. Not this doctor she goes a 100 percent!
